    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of this remastered title combines nostalgic visual novel segments during the day with classic dungeon crawling mechanics at night, appealing primarily to fans of retro RPGs. While it offers some modern enhancements like tutorials and enemy information, the core gameplay remains largely unchanged from its 2001 origins, which may feel repetitive and dated to some players. Overall, it serves as a decent option for those who appreciate classic visual novels and RPGs, but may not satisfy those seeking more contemporary gameplay or abundant adult content.

    • “ Dual gameplay modes: switch between visual novel segments during the day and classic dungeon crawling at night.”
    • “If you’re a fan of retro visual novels with RPG mechanics, this remaster is worth adding to your collection.”
    • “Overall, a really good visual novel with cool gameplay.”
    • “However, it should be noted that, since this release is only a remaster and not a remake, the story, much of the gameplay, voice acting, and unfortunately, the 4:3 aspect ratio remain the same.”
    • “They are nothing remarkable, considering they feature mechanics from 24 years ago, with physical attacks, magical abilities, techniques, and the use of objects.”
    • “Remastered is an interesting game that gives players a glimpse into the world of old adult games, where visual novels and RPGs were at their peak at that time, but although this title has gameplay improvements, it remains the same core, making it repetitive and tedious to play.”

If you don't mind how old it is, I suggest you play it to feel the glory of AliceSoft's good old days.”
    • “The game available on Steam is the 'remastered' version, in which the graphics from the 2000 version have been rescaled to fit modern screens, with smoother edges.”

  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and repetitive, particularly in dungeon exploration, which can become mind-numbing over time. While the remastered version offers some gameplay improvements, it retains a core that may not appeal to those seeking engaging content, especially given the limited erotic elements. Overall, the experience is best suited for fans of classic RPGs and visual novels rather than those looking for a more dynamic or rewarding gameplay loop.

    • “Despite the playtime, it's a whole lot of dungeon grinding... especially if you don't use the modern setting (I highly recommend this unless you love to grind; the dungeons are mind-numbing after a while).”
    • “Although this title has gameplay improvements, it remains the same core, making it repetitive and tedious to play. Add to that the fact that the sexual content is scarce and not very erotic, and it's hard to recommend if you're not a fan of classic RPGs or visual novels focused on story rather than NSFW content.”
